CalTel offers dialup internet service that uses your standard telephone line and telephone modem built into your computer to get onto the internet. While your computer is on the internet, you will not be able to make or receive telephone calls. Most computers come equipped with a dialup modem as standard equipment.

CalTel's DSL service is a reliable high-speed, always on internet connection. It works over your phone line, while at the same time allows you to use your same phone line to make and receive regular telephone calls. DSL can be up to 100 times faster than regular 28.8Kb dialup connection, depending on your location, and DSL service plan.
We have 2 available service plans available for our customers in the (209)785-xxxx and (209)786-xxxx service areas. All of our service plans are based on “Theoretical - Best Achievable Rate” (T-BAR). There are many dependencies that include, but are not limited to: Internet traffic, owner's computer speed, distance from phone company equipment, and equipment status. Because of this, we cannot guarantee any minimum connection speed or internet availability.
